Enforcement of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (REAL)

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) was created to enforce the Civil Rights Act of 1964. [They also enforce the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Equal Pay Act.] They take thousands of enforcement actions every year. In 2020 alone and under the Civil Rights Act cases alone, the EEOC mediated over 5,000 settlements between employers and employees and resolved over 8,000 cases with decisions favorable to the employee with a total of $234 million dollars of monetary benefits.

Look at one or more of the types of discrimination listed on the webpage linked below, select one or more topic to read more about it, and summarize what you learn for your classmates to read and respond to.

(Links to an external site.)

Your summary should be clear writing of at least a good paragraph in length that helps explain exactly what the EEOC considers when deciding when to take enforcement action against a business. Your post should be in your own words, not cut and pasted from the website, and you should also make a separate post making a substantive comment on a fellow student’s summary. Two posts are required for this discussion.
